What are actual legit communities?

Undoubtedly going to be Elon Musk vs Jeff Bezos

Then prepare for more paying in exposure memes on the Internet. There is nothing wrong with AI art, and honestly it’s better from an ethical standpoint to use AI art versus not paying someone for their time and energy.

The goal is to generate outrage, and then use the anger to justify retaliation. I agree with you completely, you don’t commit further atrocities over alleged or even prior atrocities.

More like they have an emulated BIOS mode that is still part of UEFI.

Yes, that is exactly the implication

It’s been fairly obvious from the beginning the Russia would win. I was not expecting the US / European proxy war, but interest in funding and supporting that is disappearing too.

Ukraine cannot win without support, and Ukraine is losing support.

Whip cracker is actually probably false etymology, like a retcon of the origin that is popular, but actually not true.

You’re literally advocating for what is essentially approved propaganda. That you think there is an objectively correct bias terrifies me, and if you had sense, it would terrify you too.

There is no such thing as objective truth, just perception and bias, and you truly believe it’s not okay to speak out against genocide?

I hope the history books of the future describe the atrocities of the present, because clearly we can’t rely on the news.

This is stupid, she’s a human first, and journalist second. If aliens were committing genocide on humans would you still have the same opinion?

We should be allowed to have and express opinions. How many reporters use the words terrorist? Freedom fighter? You can’t police people’s bias, nor should you.

It does exist actually, it’s just Polish media.

Seeing Fae Farm mentioned in the wild randomly like this tickled me

I want an extremely low power laptop for programming. Slow processor, e-ink screen with a low refresh rate. I want 24 hours battery life with a solar charger to sit outside and program.

Right? That’s actually supposed to be three accounts.

Still here. Never went back, but it’s so hard not to.

Entirely overengineered. Redundant with better solutions. This is being pushed for hidden reasons.

I actually have a story. I was very young and was under for 10 hours. It was terrible, I felt every moment, I was trapped in a video game, Link’s Adventure. Just repeating over and over. This isn’t a joke, the experience was so traumatizing I won’t go through surgery again. This was over three decades ago. I don’t know what went wrong, why I experienced the passage of time. I thought I had literally gone to Hell, it was torture.

I know people who used to work in game QA work, the key term is used to, the work isn’t there anymore. Yes those jobs literally still exist, but it’s not like it used to be, they’re almost always contractors and where they used to hire in droves, the cycles are shorter and more last minute, with less people.

The dirty truth is that day one patches are a result of trading a release date for money - they budget for releasing, getting money from the sales, and using that to pay the last part of development. They’re borrowing against the future, and they collect so much data from games that they get to effectively test games they know are not finished on consumers.

It’s so much worse than you can imagine.

That’s an astute way to conceptualize the issue! If perfect and fair moderation were possible, I guess I wouldn’t have issue with it.

Because they’re automatic and irreversible, and mistakes happen. I once worked for a different game company that auto banned people from games too, but I know at least some of them didn’t, it ability to detect wasn’t perfect and we absolutely banned people from time to time incorrectly. We just left people with no recourse and pretended that just wasn’t possible. We never reversed our bans either.
